Meta’s insights – Driving Performance with Creative

“In a world where everyone has access to these AI-powered creative tools, human creativity will be more critical than ever for brands to stand out.” – Meta

In our recent Future Trends in Advertising festival, Meta presented the growing importance of creative volume, differentiation and personalisation with AI-powered creative. When put together, META claims that all aspects can firmly drive campaign performance.

The new expectation for brands is personalisation: creative accounts for over 50% of campaign effectiveness. The key assets to explore and embed this lies within high-quality content, authentic storytelling, and ad cultural relevance.

So, here’s the breakdown…

Scale your creative

Meta’s 20:20:60 formula  involves running a minimum of 20 ads at a time, with 20% featuring partnerships or creator collaborations. Simply, diverse differentiation across ads allows for better creative variety that attracts audiences.

It aims to involve:

  • 20% promotional content
    Focused on your product or service (offers, announcements, ads)
  • 20% curated content
    Sharing relevant third-party articles, videos, or insights
  • 60% engaging content
    Posts that build relationships – questions, stories, behind-the-scenes, or light, relatable content.
Connect with Creators:

Adopting research of influential techniques used by creators can help to provide winning content strategies used in collaborations or as personal organics. Embedding human creativity will stand out.

META encourages you to Explore hooks, editing, formats and AI tools for experimental effectiveness for your brand.
